In my work, I am interested in the manipulation of space, the viewer's position within it and their relationship with it. A space can be transformed by an object. My work is one of the aspects of the space.
I want the viewer to discover the notion of space through experiencing my work. The work should be an external device used in contacting the viewer’s inner world.
Because people tend to depend on the five senses, especially the sense of sight. They only believe what they are seeing, the visual evidence of existence. Having been brought up in Japan, and as an Japanese artist, I always consider space as an object. In Zen, zero means SOMEthing not NOthing. Emptiness does not exist. Space is presence not absence.
Even materials, made from a gathered matrix of molecules, like paper, wood, canvas, paint, and so on include space. I would go further and say that color and line themselves are materials and therefore reinforce this concept both within and without.
So, I consider painting is a part of space, and I have been trying to create, in between two-dimensional space (on the surface of canvas, with color and lines) three-dimensions, and vice versa.
